Most of the Moth Mullein I have seen in the city has been the white variety, they also appear in a yellow variety. I came across a few specimens of the yellow variety in the Passyunk area just south of the Schuylkill River, in the Auto-Parts District. Click here to see more pictures of these specimens.
